  14. Setting The Stage For Health Workforce Policy In The ACA Era Edward Salsberg, MPA Director, National Center for Health Workforce Analysis U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration Bureau of Health Professions A Health Policy Briefing With Health Affairs and Academic Medicine November 14, 2013

  15. Major Developments and Trends Affecting the Health Workforce • Increasing demand • Demographic changes • Increasing access via insurance expansion • Unsustainable cost increases and concern with inefficiencies • Delivery system reforms and growing size of health care organizations • Innovations (e.g. increased use of non-physician clinicians; retail clinics, technological advances) • Increased attention to primary care, chronic care, prevention, behavioral health and population health

  16. Initiatives Affecting Demand and Service Delivery Redesign • CMMI initiatives impacting and involving the health workforce • Support for medical homes and ACOs • Payment reforms • Support for Interprofessional Practice and Teams • Promotion of full use of all health workers from advanced practice nurses to home health aides

  17. HRSA Initiatives Affecting Supply • Teaching Health Centers • Title VII and VIII promote primary care and community-based training • National Health Service Corps (NHSC) • National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education

  18. National Center for Health Workforce Analysis • Expanded and improved health workforce data collection and analysis • Improved projections of supply and demand/need • Dissemination of findings, data and information especially to key stakeholders • Strengthening state health workforce planning capacity

  19. Workforce Composition: Growth of PAs/NPs Compared to Physicians Percentages of Types of Direct Patient Care Providers, Supply and Production Source: National Center for Health Workforce Analysis

  20. Closing Observations • Growing awareness of the important role of the health workforce in health systems transformation • A variety of forces are contributing to efforts to make better use of the existing workforce • Effective health workforce planning is a shared federal-state responsibility • Maldistributionis critical health workforce challenge; national numbers may mask need in local communities • More data, research and studies are needed to inform the health workforce decision making and to make health workforce policy more evidence based

  23. RWJF: Investing In People A strong and vibrant health workforce is crucial to improving health and health care Nursing Investment: $600 M in nursing programming

  25. Collaborations And Partnering RWJF and AARP: The Future of Nursing: Campaign for Action Future of Nursing Scholars • Philanthropic collaborative to engage other donors

  26. Collaborations And Partnering RWJF and Group Health Research Institute • LEAP • Identify creative workforce practices that enhance efficiency and effectiveness of primary care

  27. Reforming Health Professions, Education Will Require Culture Change And Closer Ties Between Classroom And Practice George Thibault, MDPresident, Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation

  28. Panel Two: Restructuring Medical Education

  29. A New Pathway For Medical Education Stephen C. Shannon, DO, MPH Boyd R. Buser, Marc B. Hahn, John B. Crosby, Tyler Cymet, Joshua S. Mintz, Karen J. Nichols

  30. Blue Ribbon Commission Key Principles • Focus on team-based, patient-centered care. • Build on competency-based curriculum. • Provide continuous, longitudinal, education-based experience. • Administer via medical schools, in collaboration with GME providers with clinical experience in variety of settings. • Focus on healthcare delivery science. Five Key Principles www.BlueRibbonCommission.org

  31. Policy Issues • Redesigning admissions criteria to identify students suitable for the Pathway. • Devising and overseeing creation of seamless educational continuum from undergraduate through graduate medical education. • Ensuring ability of graduates to gain licensure and board certification. • Accreditation. • Financial Consideration

  32. Accelerating Physician Workforce Transformation Through Competitive GME Funding David C. Goodman, MD MS Russell Robertson, MD

  33. GME Is Lagging Behind Change In Health Care • Primarily hospital-based. • Lacks an emphasis on longitudinal care. • Fails to train for a future with clinical teams. • Insufficient in developing skills needed to improve care and lead change. • Within a training pipeline that is frozen in time – teaching hospitals enjoy an entitlement of 1997 positions with autonomy in the specialty mix. • And, meritorious new programs can rarely receive funding. Training is:

  34. Change Will Require Accountability Through Competitive Funding • Public body sets annual programmatic funding priorities (Example: 5% primary care or innovative training in longitudinal care.) • Programmatic priorities would be updated annually, providing incremental guidance for GME and physician workforce change. • Each year, 10% of all training programs would apply and compete for training grants. New programs could apply and existing programs could compete for more positions. • Applications peer-reviewed by GME study sections. • Awards would be for ten-years, with a 5 year review.

  35. Advantages And Criticism • Over a decade, every program would be reviewed against peers. • Meritorious programs would expand; weaker programs would lose a portion of their funding. • Change would be incremental – priorities could be adjusted year by year. • Stability would be assured with ten year grants. • Criticism and questions: • Untested • Threatens existing large and powerful teaching hospitals. • Will the guiding public body act wisely? • Is there an interest in changing the status quo?

  36. Physician Workforce Planning In An Era Of Health Care Reform Atul Grover, MD, PhD Chief Public Policy Officer, AAMC

  37. Approaching Shortage Of 130,000 PhysiciansThree-Pronged Approach • Team care/IPE • New delivery models AND • Training an additional 4,000 physicians/year

  38. A Growing, Aging Population Matters Physician Utilization per 100,000 people by Age HHS/HRSA The Physician Workforce: Projections and Research into Current Issues Affecting Supply and Demand, December 2008 at http://bhpr.hrsa.gov/healthworkforce/reports/physwfissues.pdf

  39. IME Is A Patient Care Payment • Created because of concerns about the inability of Medicare coding to “account fully for factors such as severity of illness of patients requiring the specialized services and treatment programs provided by teaching institutions and the additional costs associated with the teaching of residents” (House Ways & Means Committee Rept., No. 98-25, March 4, 1983 and Senate Finance Committee Rept., No. 98-23, March 11, 1983 [emphasis added]). • “to compensate teaching hospitals for their relatively higher costs attributable to the involvement of residents in patient care and the severity of illness of patients requiring specialized services available only in teaching hospitals.” U.S. Congress, 1999

  40. Panel Three: New Models Of Care And Reaching Vulnerable Populations

  41. Workforce Implications Of New Models Of Primary Care David Auerbach, PhD (RAND) Peggy Chen, MD, (RAND) Mark Friedberg, MD, (RAND) AteevMehrotra, MD, (Harvard, RAND) Rachel Reid, MD Peter Buerhaus, RN, PHD (Vanderbilt) Christopher Lau, MS (RAND) Funding by Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and Donaghue Foundation

  42. Provider Shortages? • AAMC projects shortage of 45,000 primary care physicians by 2025 • Aging, slow supply growth, ACA • Projections extrapolate today’s way of delivering care to the future • What if that changes?

  43. Investigated Two Models • Nurse-Managed Health Centers • ~0.5% of primary care today • Surveyed 30 centers • Almost exclusively staffed by NPs • Patient-Centered Medical Home • ~15% of primary care today • Analyzed data from Penn pilot project • Medical homes used more NPs and PAs • Panel sizes varied

  44. Primary Care Delivery Models Traditional practice Patient-Centered Medical Home Nurse-Managed Health Center MD: 6.9; NP+PA: 2.6 MD: 6.1; NP+PA: 3.7 MD: 0.8; NP: 10.4 Staffing per 10,000 patients

  45. Shortage Forecasts • Primary care provider supply and demand scenarios Website courtesy of Anna Mehrotra (@annamehrotra)

  46. Conclusions • Shortage projections are very sensitive to changes in primary care delivery models • Standard labor force projections don’t account for these changes • Growth of the PCMH and NHMC models would ameliorate projected imbalances • Can eliminate physician shortage • Though panel size is key, uncertain for PCMH

  47. PCMH Grows From 15% to 45%
